NEET Preparation

The National Medical Commission (NMC) has released the NEET 2024 syllabus. As compared to the previous years' syllabus, some of the topics have been removed from each of the three subjects, Physics, Chemistry and Biology. There are around nine chapters in Chemistry which have been removed. In Chemistry, the following chapters or topics have been removed from the units given in the table below. UnitsTopicsSome Basic Concepts of ChemistryGeneral Introduction: Important and scope of chemistry.Structure of AtomAtomic number, isotopes and isobars, Concept of shells and subshells, dual nature of matter and light.Some p-Block ElementsImportant compounds of silicon and a few uses: silicon tetrachloride, silicones, silicates and zeolites, their uses.Organic Compounds Containing NitrogenCyanides and Isocyanides- will be mentioned at relevant places.Environmental ChemistryEnvironmental pollution: Air, water and soil pollution, chemical reactions in atmosphere, smogs, major atmospheric pollutants; acid rain ozone and its reactions, effects of depletion of ozone layer, greenhouse effect and global warming-pollution due to industrial wastes; green chemistry as an alternative tool for reducing pollution, strategy for control of environmental pollution.PolymersClassification- Natural and synthetic, methods of polymerization (addition and condensation), copolymerization. Some important polymers: natural and synthetic like polyesters, bakelite; rubber, Biodegradable and non-biodegradable polymers.Chemistry in Everyday LifeChemicals in medicines- analgesics, tranquilizers, antiseptics, disinfectants, antimicrobials, antifertility drugs, antibiotics, antacids, antihistamines.• Chemicals in food- preservatives, artificial sweetening agents, elementary idea of antioxidants.• Cleansing agents- soaps and detergents, cleansing action.Surface ChemistryAdsorption-physisorption and chemisorption; factors affecting adsorption of gases on solids, catalysis homogeneous and heterogeneous, activity and selectivity: enzyme catalysis; colloidal state: distinction between true solutions, colloids and suspensions; lyophilic, lyophobic multimolecular and macromolecular colloids; properties of colloids; Tyndall effect, Brownian movement, electrophoresis, coagulation; emulsions- types of emulsions.Haloalkanes and Haloarenes·         Haloalkanes: Nomenclature, nature of C –X bond, physical and chemical properties, mechanism of substitution reactions. Optical rotation.·         Haloarenes: Nature of C-X bond, substitution reactions (directive influence of halogen formonosubstituted compounds only).·         Uses and environmental effects of – dichloromethane, trichloromethane, tetrachloromethane, iodoform, freons, DDT. Also Read:NEET Chemistry Syllabus With Chapter-wise WeightagePhysical Chemistry Chapters for NEETInorganic Chemistry Chapters for NEET 2024 Preparation

Experts recommend to take at least 5-10 NEET PG mock tests before the actual exam. This helps you get a good idea of the exam format, the types of questions that might be asked, and the time you need to spend on each section. NEET PG 2024 preparation is a crucial task, and mock tests are an essential part of it. Solving mock tests helps you to identify your strengths and weaknesses, familiarize yourself with the exam pattern, and improve your time management skills. However, the number of mock tests you should take depends on various factors, such as your current level of preparation, the time you have left before the exam, and your goals.

Solving previous years' NEET question papers is a crucial aspect for preparation. There are multiple benefits of solving previous years' question papers. This not only provides an access to the previous years' questions, but also helps them check their preparation level, and get them ready for the exam taking experience. Some of the advantages of solving previous years' NEET question papers are given below:Exposure to exam pattern: Previous years' question papers will allow candidates to check the exam pattern, structure and question types, to know what to expect in the paper. Weightage of chapters and topics: By going through the questions, candidates will be able to get an idea about the portions of NEET syllabus covered in the exam. This will also allow them to scan the topic or chapter-wise weightages for NEET. Knowing the chapter-wise weightage in NEET will help them prepare accordingly. Time Management: Solving NEET question papers in a proctored manner helps candidates get an idea about the average time taken for solving the entire paper and how much additional time they are taking. This will help them decide a proper time management strategy about how much time to dedicate per question and when to move on to the next question. Analyse preparation level: After solving NEET question paper of past years, or even by looking at questions, candidates will understand their preparation level for each subject. They will get a clear idea which subject or chapters would require more attention and practice and which chapters are well prepared. To know more read the Shiksha.com article 'Why Previous Years' NEET Question Papers and Mock Tests Are Important?
